They're not that bad. a lot of them fell short but are foreseeable in the not-too-distant future. Some things he predicted for later ar arguably here or almost here, eg this one for 2029:

I don't know what the deletion of predictions means, but Wikipedia editors in general seem to dislike checklists.
